When are you expecting to fully release?! This game is what the horror genre is lacking: A truly horror game without dumb jumpscares and not being a walking simulator. I loved the whole concept. They way the puzzles are layed out makes them feel actually real. I see myself buying that magnetic security key. Congrats on this game. The only thing that bothered me is how slow the character can be when crouched. Maybe adding a small sprinting boost when crouched might help(?)

Hi, thank you for the kind words and feedback! The game was supposed to be released by the end of the year, unfortunately I'm not there both in terms of completion and wishlists. I only get to release once and -as a solo dev- I don't really have access to a strong marketing machine to promote it... It doesn't help that this year has been ridiculous in terms of really interesting games being released and my game is simply too small and invisible to even attempt to compete against any of them.
Anyway, I'll look into tweaking crouch speed, it is indeed a little too slow.
I missed the part where you are a solo dev while playing the demo. This is a very well crafted game. I made my own video which I'm editing, and honestly, I commented about how your game remembered me Silent Hill, and could be the next Amnesia in terms of genre revolution. I hope your game reaches a big gaming youtuber so more people are aware of it.
You're very kind, but I don't think my game is revolutionary in any way nor will ever reach mainstream success. I'm well aware I'm making a niche game for an even nicher audience and I'm at peace with that. I only hope that anybody who plays it will enjoy it for what it is, rather than bashing it for what it's not.
